This study investigated the differences of perceived parenting attitude and academic stress on smartphone addiction according to the classification of addiction-risk group among middle school students. A descriptive research design was used. The subjects were 358 middle school students from five middle school in Daegu. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$ test, t-test, and stepwise multiple regression using SPSS 18.0. Smartphone addiction-risk group was 97(27.0%) and general group was 261(72.9%). Smartphone addiction-risk group was more negatively perceived parenting attitude and higher academic stress than the general group. The most influential factors on addiction-risk group was using time in a day(${\beta}=.29.4$, p=.003) and general group was academic stress(${\beta}=.298$, p=.000). It is important to develop an intervention program to prevention the smartphone addiction according to the classification of addiction-risk group.

최근 스마트폰이 대중화 되면서 스마트폰을 사용하는 사용자의 계층이 다양화되고 있다. 그러나 스마트폰을 사용하는 사용자 계층 중 청소년이 다른 계층보다 스마트폰 게임에 쉽게 중독되어 다른 일상 생활이 힘든 상황이 발생하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰 게임을 통해 일상 생활이 불가능한 청소년을 대상으로 게임 사용을 강제적으로 조절할 수 있는 인증 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안 프로토콜은 사용자의 게임 시간과 접속 횟수 등의 정보를 이용하여 게임 사용을 자제하도록 함으로써 사용자의 게임중독을 예방하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. 또한, 청소년이 온라인 게임 상에 물품을 구입할 경우 청소년의 부모에게 게임 아이템구입 확인 메시지를 전달하여 게임 사용을 제한한다.

The data were collected from 169 nursing students and analyzed with t-test, ANOVA and multiple regression by using SPSS 21.0 program. The smartphone addiction risk was shown to be 32%. Significant risk factors for smartphone addiction were problem focused coping style ( =-3.278, p=.031), hopeful prediction ( =.117, p=.044), circles presence ( =2.744 p=.019), motive for smartphone usage ( =-1.122 p=.003), and average daily using time ( =2.975 p=.000). These factors explained 43.6% of the variance in smartphone addiction. In conclusion, the results from this study suggest the need for the development of an intervention program for smartphone addiction, with consideration to the factors affecting smartphone addiction outlined in this study

Current study was conducted to examine the mediating effect of maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies and negative affect on the relationship between perceived stress and smartphone addiction of adults and to explore suggestions for counseling adults with smartphone addiction symptoms. Three hundred adults(146 males, 154 females) were administered perceived stress scale, maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategy scale, negative affect scale, and smartphone addiction scale. The main results are summarized as follows: First, perceived stress had positive influence on smartphone addiction. Second, negative affect showed mediating effect on the relationship between perceived stress and smartphone addiction. Third, maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies did not show mediating effect on the relationship between perceived stress and smartphone addiction. Forth, maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies and negative affect showed double mediating effect on the relationship between perceived stress and smartphone addiction. Based on the above results, it was suggested to include stress management and relief of negative affect through modification of maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies in the treatment program for adults at high risk of smartphone addiction.
